The agribusiness industry is changing rapidly. Global demand will require a 50%+ increase in production of major agricultural crops over the next 40 years. Sources of new land are limited; therefore, greater yield is critical to meeting the ever-increasing global demand. Western economies (US, Brazil, Canada) are becoming even more important exporters to the rest of the world. The most successful companies in the agricultural sector historically have either participated across multiple segments of the value chain or have achieved large scale in a dedicated area of focus.

Going forward, companies will have to compete in an increasingly complex environment, which includes increasing competition for resources as alternative fuel sources; more environmental pressure on farming techniques; and competing governmental priorities that suppress optimal global yield and trade flows. Bain works alongside companies to navigate these and many other pressing issues to achieve sustainable results.
